10.9.2 Email Configuration
In order for an alarm trigger to
successfully send a notification
email, some network settings
must first be configured properly
(refer to Figure 40.)
DNS Servers:
Enter the dotted-
decimal IP addresses of the
primary and secondary DNS
servers which will be used to
resolve the configured SMTP
server name. Only the primary
DNS server is required, but if a
secondary DNS server is entered,
then it will be used if the primary
server is inaccessible.
Mail Server:
Enter the SMTP
server address as a name or as a
dotted-decimal IP address, and
the SMTP port (default=25) that
the SMTP server listens for
incoming emails on.
“From” Email:
Enter the email
address that will appear as the
sender’s email address in the
email headers.
“To” Emails:
Up to four recipients can be designated to receive alarm emails.
Blank entries will not be processed by the interface.
“Test Email” Button:
When the “Test Email” button is pressed, the interface
card will use the information currently entered in the above-mentioned fields to
send a test email. Note that you do not have to first “submit” the settings to the
interface card’s filesystem (refer to section 10.9.5) in order to test them: fields
can be changed and retested on-the-fly without affecting the operation of the
interface card’s control protocols. When the correct settings have been
confirmed with a successfully-sent test email, “submit” the changes at that time
to commit them to the interface card’s filesystem: any changes made prior to
submitting as described in section 10.9.5 are temporary only and will be lost if a
different configuration tab is selected or if the web browser is closed.
When a test email transmission is initiated, completes successfully, or fails due
to an error, the information window (refer to section 10.9.1) will display
appropriate messages such as those shown in Figure 41 and Figure 42.
